Routine Podiatry and Chiropody
Healthy feet can make a big difference to how comfortably you move day to day. Our routine podiatry service provides professional foot care for common problems such as thickened nails, corns, calluses and ingrown toenails, as well as regular foot health checks.
Appointments are available at our clinics in Amersham, Beaconsfield and Gerrards Cross, with flexible appointment times to make ongoing foot care easier to fit around your routine.
What can routine podiatry help with?
Your podiatrist can assess your feet, discuss any concerns you may have and provide treatment where appropriate. Routine appointments may include:
Toenail care
Cutting, filing and thinning toenails that are thickened, overgrown, difficult to reach or uncomfortable.
Corns and calluses
Careful removal of areas of hard or thickened skin that may be causing pressure, tenderness or discomfort when walking.
Fungal nail infections
Assessment of suspected fungal nail infections, along with advice and ongoing management where required.
Ingrown toenails
Assessment and treatment of painful or irritated toenails, with advice on reducing the risk of the problem returning.
Diabetic foot checks
Regular assessment of the skin, nails, circulation and sensation in the feet to help identify potential problems at an early stage.
Who is routine podiatry suitable for?
Routine podiatry can be helpful for anyone who finds looking after their feet difficult or uncomfortable. It can be particularly useful for older adults and for people with conditions such as diabetes or reduced circulation.
You may also benefit if you struggle to bend or reach your feet, have reduced eyesight, regularly develop painful hard skin or simply prefer to have your feet cared for professionally.
How often should I see a podiatrist?
This varies from person to person. Some patients benefit from regular appointments approximately every 6–8 weeks, while others may only need occasional treatment.
Your podiatrist can recommend an appropriate interval based on your individual foot health and how quickly problems such as hard skin or thickened nails tend to return.
